Chapter 153: The Stalemate Trial
At this time, Cesar was very excited when he heard what Gemma said and shouted loudly: "Gemma, do you know what you are talking about? How could I be the Phantom Thief Marten?"
"You should know me best. How could I possibly hurt you? It's impossible. Why? Why do you think so? Why? Answer me!"
Cesar's excitement at this time indirectly confirmed Gemma's statement about the murder of Mr. Cesar, and the audience below analyzed it very well.
After all, the people of Fontaine who have read too many detective novels will subconsciously feel that Cesar's hysteria at this time was caused by the truth being revealed, rather than an expression of anger because he was framed.
At this moment, in order to maintain the silence of the Fontaine Court of Justice, Villette hit the ground heavily with his cane, making a sound like waves.
Then, Villette was heard shouting, "Please keep quiet in the courtroom." Villette's voice seemed to have some magic power, which instantly suppressed the boiling crowd and the emotional Cesar.
The trial process continued, but the subject had changed.
Satisfied that everyone was quiet, Navillatte announced that the trial would continue, and then he glanced at Gemma.
Although what Gemma said was well-founded and the developments she described were also within the reasonable scope of the plot, compared to the people of Fontaine who were easily led by the rhythm, the absolutely rational Navelette did not completely trust Gemma's words.
Because she had just used false evidence to try to frame Wu Cheng as the murderer, with such a previous conviction, Navillatte had reason to suspect that what Gemma said at this time might not be true, and it might have been fabricated by someone else.
So Villette thought it was necessary to confirm the authenticity of the cause and effect that Gemma had just said.
Villette asked Gemma without emotion: "Ms. Gemma, since you accuse Mr. Cesar of being a thief who has been rampant in Fontaine for decades, can you provide evidence to prove your own evidence?"
As if she had been prepared, Gemma answered Villette in a confident tone: "It is easy for Lord Villette to prove my evidence. Just let the Fontaine Guard search Cesar's room. They will definitely find irrefutable evidence that Cesar is the Phantom Thief Marten."
"After all, even if Cesar, the Phantom Thief, has been deliberately hiding himself for more than ten years, he must have left some evidence in his room that cannot be erased."
Villette also felt that what Gemma said made sense, so she asked the Fontaine guards to search the place where Cesar lived.
However, Navillatte, who has been investigating cases for many years, always feels that what Gemma said seems a little strange, an indescribable feeling.
While the Fontaine Guard was searching for evidence at Cecil's residence, those nobles still could not change their innate aristocratic habits.
They even clamored that since the real murderer had been brought to justice, why didn't they, who had nothing to do with the murderer, leave the trial place?
And Villette's answer was: "No suspect may leave the scene before the trial is over. All of you in the courtroom could be the murderer."
"So please be patient and wait for the final result of the trial. If anyone disrupts the order of the court again, anyone will be punished by Fontaine Law, regardless of their status."
These nobles also knew that what Villette said was not a joke. After all, when he came to Fontaine to serve as the Grand Inquisitor more than 500 years ago, he enacted many laws targeting the privileges of the nobility.
After that, many nobles were arrested and imprisoned in Melro Petersburg for a while, and some were even expelled from Fontaine and banned from entering the country forever. This included the great nobles who were powerful in Fontaine at the time.
They thought that they were not as powerful as the nobles five hundred years ago, so they continued to sit quietly in their seats like turtles, without saying a word.
Lorenzo, who was standing aside, was so nervous that he could not speak. It was Gemma who gave him confidence at the beginning of the trial.
After the forged evidence was produced, Lorenzo thought that all the blame could be placed on Wu Cheng, and the two of them would naturally be able to escape punishment.
But he didn't expect that Wu Cheng seemed to have known that they were going to murder Cesar, and he even prepared expensive cameras and negatives to capture evidence of their crime.
No matter how you think about it, Wu Cheng's behavior is terrifying and horrible. Lorenzo thinks it's like being stripped naked in front of Wu Cheng without any cover.
When they looked at Wu Cheng, Wu Cheng was wrapped up tightly and they couldn't tell what his real purpose was. But no matter what Wu Cheng's purpose was, the ironclad evidence that the two of them were the murderers was there and they couldn't argue.
It was precisely because his identity as a murderer was revealed that he felt guilty and kept his head down looking at his neat shoes with his fists clenched tightly. It was not only because he was nervous, but also because he could see the disappointment and confusion in Cesar's eyes as soon as he looked up.
It was as if he was questioning him: "We have been master and apprentice for many years, why did you want to murder me? What have I done to let you down?"
He also regretted for a moment that he and Gemma had conspired to murder his teacher. He just wanted his teacher to give him a chance to perform on stage. He didn't want to be a magic assistant for life. What's wrong with that? Is it wrong to be ambitious?
He also hopes that one day he can perform on stage like his teacher Mr. Cesar, earning a considerable amount of money for each performance and gaining praise from the people of Fontaine.
He never thought that their plan would be completely shattered by a temporary variable, and because of his unwillingness, he pushed himself into the abyss of depravity.
Now he has been charged with the crime of killing his master. No matter what, those grand magic shows seem to have nothing to do with him anymore. He knows that in the future, people in the magic world will always label him as ungrateful when they mention his name.
Secondly, he felt guilty about Teacher Cesar. In fact, when Lorenzo was conspiring with Gemma, he kept asking himself: "Is Cesar not good to him?"
But the voice in his heart kept telling him that it was not the case, and kept condemning him for hurting Teacher Sal.
This also made Lorenzo unable to kill his teacher Cesar. Many times, he needed Gemma's psychological counseling to strengthen his killing intention towards Cesar.
But if his teacher had continued to live, he would have been able to be a magic assistant for the rest of his life and remain unknown.
Lorenzo knew that no one would remember how famous the magic assistant was, people would only remember the name of the great magician performing on stage, just like people can pronounce the name of a flower when they see it, but they are hesitant to name the green leaves that set off the flower.
He wanted to be as famous and wealthy as his teacher Cesar, and leave a strong mark in the Fontaine magic world. He claimed that his magic talent was not bad, he just needed a stage to perform. That's all...
